Cocktail Description
The Berry Bon Vivant transforms cognac into something entirely unexpected—a ruby-hued stunner that balances fruit, nuttiness, and sophisticated spirits.
This striking cocktail combines the bright acidity of fresh raspberries and lime juice with the rich complexity of Hennessy V.S Cognac, while Amaro Averna adds herbal depth and almond orgeat brings a subtle sweetness and nutty character. The result is surprisingly balanced—tart and fruit-forward but with an underlying complexity that reveals itself with each sip. Perfect for spring and summer evenings or as an aperitif before a special dinner, the Berry Bon Vivant makes an impressive addition to cocktail parties where you want something more sophisticated than typical fruit drinks. Though it requires muddling and precise measurements, the recipe is straightforward enough for home bartenders with basic tools. This elegant sipper pairs beautifully with rich cheese boards, duck confit, or dark chocolate desserts—anything that can stand up to its bold flavor profile while complementing the cocktail's fruity-meets-sophisticated character.
